OK, I can accept that. But man, I would never even give him a sniff at ever coming near the DC position if Wink ever leaves!

I was thinking Pagano, but I like both of those names. Ray and Reed were two of the most cerebral players and I'm surprised that we don't see more of those guys in the facility just working with and talking to those guys. Only 4 teams had less INT's this year than the Ravens. Xavien Howard had as many INT's as the Ravens team. Marlon Humphrey was the 3rd most targeted player in the NFL this year and he had 1 INT. We have 3 1st round CB's. I feel like they are possibly the best secondary in the NFL, AND have the possibility to be better.

I like both hires. Hopefully Rob can further develop Queen.

I think Cullen or Macdonald would have been the choice if he left this year and Ryan and Weaver (who took their positions) will likely be the choice next year.

I don't know if they would turn the whole thing over to someone here for just a year without a national search. Wink got it after putting in his time here.

Ravens DC has to be among the top five most valuable assistant positions in the NFL. Like Patriots OC with Brady. I don't think the next guy will be a one year guy without a wide search.

Pass on Deion.

If not Reed, I'm on board with giving Eric Weddle a call.

C’mon man. No love for Prime? Dude was /is the greatest DB ever. He’s HC at some small ass school now.

Reed would be my first choice because of his relationship with the Ryan’s.

I think Pags is a DC in the NFL. Doubt he’d leave that to be a DB coach here. But he’d be top of my wish list if Wink left.

Yes! If Rex can “make Bart Scott “ a household name ...hopefully Rob can do wonders with Queen and Harrison. It would be soo nice to have a dynamic duo at ILB again.

Deion is coaching at Jackson State and has an all star class of coaches with him. By the way, his truck was broken into and boom box stolen, he got it back.

Love to see Weddle here as DB coach. Harbaugh would too.

Not a fan of Rob Ryan as a DC, but if his focus is limited to coaching up the linebackers I'll be open minded about it. Just don't let Rob have any input into the defensive schemes Wink is running.

That’s it. Jackson St. Isn’t his son the QB there?
